    The Fresh Flower Vessel returned to Fresh Flower Port,den with the weighty Trida and conches.


    It was time to tally the harvest, and watching the workers on the dock carry off one enormous seashell after another stirred Liszt’s emotions.


    He had always wished to manage Coral Reef and ck Pearl Lake, but due to insufficient manpower, he had struggled to even develop ck Horse Ind, let alone ck Pearl Lake. However, with the Sea Sprite Ake, a single voyage yielded so many shells, those which could produce ck Pearls and Pink Pearls.


    "Two or three trips a year should be essentially sufficient!"


    The growth of Trida and conches was very slow. There was no way to over-harvest them, and it seemed that therger specimens all hid in the waters around ck Pearl Lake. It was rare to see them engage in fierce battles over territory in ck Pearl Lake, allowing Ake the pleasure of reaping the benefits.


    "My lord, how should we deal with these marine products?" asked a Knight who served as a dock official,ing over to inquire. He was a former ssmate of Liszt’s, born to a minor noble family’s second son.


    Liszt said directly, "Hand over therge conches to the castle for processing... Harvest the ck Pearls from the Trida and give them to the castle, as for the meat, release it into the seafood market, half to be sold by Thorn Caravan and the other half to be sold cheaply for consumption by the residents of Fresh Flower Town and the port town."


    Whether it was Fresh Flower Town or the port town, except for grain such as wheat which had to be purchased from elsewhere, other items like seafood were very cheap.


    Even serfs could afford it and could enjoy seafood feasts every day.


    The reason was simple: the sea area had never been overfished, and the fishery resources were abundant. Unfortunately, these methods did not involve much technical skill, and the lords of the small seaside towns of Coral Ind indulged in private fishing. They either consumed the seafood themselves or secretly sold it to surrounding towns.


    The seafood business of Fresh Flower Town, impacted by such conditions, found that the seafood from the beaches had be worthless.


    That was why he now asked the residents of Oyster Vige to advance to the near sea and dive for other seafood to rece the beach seafood.

    Ultimately realizing a fishing industry scale that developed deep-sea seafood, shallow water seafood, and beach seafood simultaneously.


    "Sir, there’s too much meat from therge conches, and I fear it can’t all be consumed, nor is it easy to store... There’s not much ice left in the ice cer, and we’re unable to continue keeping the seafood fresh," Mrs. Abbie said worriedly upon seeing another big batch ofrge conches being brought back to the castle.


    "Just turn them into food and hand them over to me; I’ll distribute them among the knights of the territory for all of us to enjoy the nourishment of the Magical Beast," Liszt said casually.


    He had already eaten all the meat of the Six-Headed King Serpent and turned the snake skin into snake skin armor, handing over the snake bone and other parts to Chris Truth to be processed into magical materials. Now, his Gemstone Space had very few items stored—the wealthier Liszt no longer stored low-value items like Fine Steel Armor there.


    Currently, in the Gemstone Space, there was only the Crimson Blood Sword, Drift Bottle, Soul Storage Vessel, a set of spare Mithril Armor, two telescopes, Sapphire Magic Ring, Goat Head g, Sapphire Dragon Ship Figurehead, Soul Submerged Wood, and a batch of poison-coated Thorn Wood Arrows.


    And five books—"Philip, Descendant of the Sun’s Diary" used for learning the Sun Script; "To His Highness Annuette—Curtis the Truth" detailing how to make Liches and Ghost Ships; the Sword Saint’s Notes gifted by Marquis Merlin; a nameless Dragon Rearing Manual, and the Advanced Dou Qi Manual "Rising Sun ze".


    The Mithril Mine, Jade, Crystal, and ck Pearls, he had sealed in the storerooms of the castle.


    Therefore.


    He had freed up quite a bit of space in his Gemstone Space, to store Magical Beast Meat, Sea Monster Meat, Dragon Breed Milk, Magic Potions, ensuring that no matter where he went, he could enjoy the same nutrition. This batch ofrge conches’ meat could be perfectly stored in the Gemstone Space, to be savored slowly.


    Of course, he was not so stingy as to enjoy all the Sea Monster meat by himself.


    The Earth Knights of the territory could get a share, and the officials of the territory could have a bit, too. This was a fair distribution of benefits.

    ...


    After the inventory waspleted.


    The number of pink pearls was notrge, totaling seven including the one Chris was studying.


    Two ordinary bowl-sized pink pearls came from those bathtub-sized sea snails, one of which had no pink pearl; two goose egg-sized pink pearls, and three chicken egg-sized pink pearls. These seven pink pearls were all irregrly shaped ovals with me-patterned textures.


    The quantity of ck pearls was considerable, a total of one hundred thirty-six. Thergest Trida alone contributed twenty-nine ck pearls.


    Adding to Liszt’s existing stock of ck pearls.


    There were a total of three basketball-sized ck pearls, eleven sea basin-sized ck pearls, forty-eight fist-sized ck pearls, and many smaller ones.


    There were also two basin-sized ck pearls, one from the stock and one from thergest Trida caught today.


    Additionally, there was an evenrger ck pearl, nearly the size of a bathtub. Without a doubt, it came from thergest Trida.


    "Hmm, so many pearls, am I rich again?" Liszt grinned as he gazed at the pile of ck pearls, already envisioning future maritime domination.


    Previously two basin-sized ck pearls had been made into Calming Sea Pearls, mounted on the Fresh Flower Vessel and Thorn Number.


    Although there were no severe storms between ck Horse Ind and Coral Ind, engaging the Calming Sea Pearls during the asional convection weather could greatly reduce the rocking of the vessels, allowing safe passage through the storm.


    "This bathtub-sized one must be used on my future gship. Once I get the shipbuilding technology and study the technology of square rigging, as well as the Dragonbone Stabilizer Technique, relying on rubber and Thorn Wood, I will surely create a super luxurious multi-mast ship... Right, maybe I can study magic-driven technology too!"


    ck pearls can disperse wind attribute magic power and even ordinary wind, so, by reverse engineering, could a magic array be developed that stimtes wind power?


    Maybe delve deeper and design a magic array that controls wind attribute magic power, turning storms into a driving force for the vessels.


    Thinking about it is exciting.


    However, to achieve all these, without substantial financial, material, and human resources, it’s simply unattainable: "I still need to continue biding my time on ck Horse Ind, developing thend slowly... Who knows, maybe I’ll be sessful at dragon riding and be a Dragon Knight soaring through the sky before thend is developed."


    By then, there might be no need to study magic-powered vessels.


    Regardless, he immediately ced the bathtub-sized ck pearl into the Gemstone Space, its value undoubtedly immense.


    The rest of the ck pearls were simply stored in the warehouse.


    Gazing at the gleaming ck pearls, inspiration suddenly struck him: "I was originally nning to give Levis a pink gemstone as a wedding gift, but now it seems unnecessary. The pink gemstone can go to Ake or Chris, as they are magicians and need a boost to their spirits."


    Not to give Levis the pink gemstone. Explore more at empire


    The alternative gift became clear: "Gift a ck pearl instead, one basketball-sized. Solely based on appearance, it’s definitely more shocking than a single gemstone."


    Initially, even a fist-sized ck pearl sold to Levis fetched hundreds of Gold Coins; now giving him a basketball-sized ck pearl would surely make him ecstatic.
